Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a unique exploration of the themes of love, duty, and aesthetics in the Victorian era. Set against the backdrop of the Aesthetic Movement, the author delves into the complexities of romantic relationships, social expectations, and the pursuit of beauty.
